Chapter 618: Relying on your thick skin?
Chapter 618: Relying on your thick skin?
Lin Hui and Lin Qingchuan were not talkative people, and they were like that even in front of living people, let alone in front of a few tombstones.
So Yu Jingmo just watched them quietly complete the tomb-sweeping process. The number of words the two spoke during that time could be counted on two hands.
The longest sentence was when Lin Hui introduced her to his parents and elder brother and sister-in-law.
The title accounts for half of it.
Lin Qingchuan was even more concise, skipping the introduction part and just calling the person.
Then there was endless silence... Well, not really, at least the sound of raindrops falling around kept it from being too quiet.
When she went to visit her parents' graves, she would babble about some of the daily life that she still remembered, saying whatever came to her mind.
But this kind of thing really depends on the person. Those who talk less will say less, while those who talk more will say more.
"Let's go."
After a while, Lin Hui spoke in a low voice.
Lin Qingchuan squatted in front of his parents' tombstone, looking at the photo of the couple with peaceful and happy smiles, and felt an unprecedented peace in his heart.
"Ah."
Although not much was said, it still took more than half an hour, and the drizzle that had been present before had completely stopped.
The tip of my nose was filled with the smell of wet earth, mixed with a faint woody fragrance. I didn't know which forest nearby this was coming from.
After putting away the umbrella, Lin Hui held Yu Jingmo's hand with his free hand, and when she looked over, he said calmly, "The road is slippery after the rain, I'll hold your hand."
"..."
Butler Lin and Lin Qingchuan acted as if they saw nothing and continued walking forward with normal expressions.
Fine.
"You guys used to do this when you came to visit the graves," Yu Jingmo couldn't help but ask after a while, "Don't you have anything to say?"
Even what Uncle Lin said was more than what the two of them said combined.
Lin Hui curled his lips slightly, "We talked a lot in the first few years, but after the company became stable, there was nothing important to tell them."
All he does on a daily basis is work, and there's nothing much to say about things that can be explained in a sentence or two.
Lin Qingchuan nodded.
He didn't need to say anything, Yu Jingmo knew what he meant, which was no different from Lin Hui.
Lin Hui was working, while Lin Qingchuan was studying. They hardly communicated with each other, so naturally there was nothing much to talk about.
Maybe I would say it secretly in my heart when I was a child, but no one knew.
-
The few of them chatted intermittently and soon left the Lin family cemetery.
When passing by the cemetery, Yu Jingmo's eyelids twitched, and he turned around to see Gu Xiujing staring at him not far away.
It was obvious that he was glaring at Lin Qingchuan. As for the reason, she knew it the next second.
"Lin Qingchuan! Are you still a man? You're arguing with two girls, one of whom is even your cousin!"
Lin Qingchuan frowned slightly and looked at Gu Xiujing as if he was a fool: "Your generosity is your business, don't be generous to others."
Thinking of something, he added, "Before, a waiter accidentally stained the corner of your clothes. Why were you so mean and yelled at him, and wanted to make him never find a job?"
"Are you relying on your thick skin to dance in front of me?"
Seeing that Gu Xiujing's face was as messy as spilled food, Yu Jingmo couldn't help but look at Lin Qingchuan with admiration.
When did the cool little prince evolve into a sharp-tongued version?
It's like being pickled in a poisoned apple, but it has nothing to do with her!
After realizing this, Yu Jingmo looked at the almost one-sided situation in front of him with peace of mind.
Seeing that Gu Xiujing was speechless, not knowing whether he was angry or embarrassed, Zhen Zhen walked out as if he had just arrived.
The eyes still seem a little red.
"I'm so sorry. Xiao Jing just visited his biological mother's grave and he's still a little upset. I hope you won't take it personally."
